The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 22 Family Charity Hall (please vote for recommendation, please collect)

Xu Zhiyu, who successfully drew the fireball talisman, understood the principle of biting off more than he could chew, so he spent two hours every day practicing the "Burning Wood Fiery Technique" and spent most of the rest of his time making talismans and studying jade slips. The life was very fulfilling.

The success rate of the Fireball Talisman is also slowly increasing, and now it has reached 40%. But he did not stop, but continued to study, and sometimes asked Uncle Ba for advice when he encountered it, and continued to improve his skills.

Half a month passed in a hurry. Xu Zhiyu opened the door and walked out of the talisman-making hall. After half a month of frantically making talismans, all the materials had been consumed.

The efforts paid off. After dozens of practices, the success rate of subsequent talisman making has reached 50%. After half a month, all the materials were turned into thirty-five talismans.

Xu Zhiyu found his eighth uncle Xu Zhenggong and reported the results of the talisman making.

Xu Zhenggong was shocked and dumbfounded. He couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh: "God bless my Xu family, God bless my Xu family."

After shouting excitedly for more than ten breaths, Xu Zhenggong regained his composure.

"Boy, you can barely be considered a first-level low-level Talisman Maker now. At your age, I haven't even entered the Talisman Dao. In the future, you can earn spiritual stones by making Talisman, exchange for materials, etc. You can go to the family merit hall. Remember to change a talisman pen. The talisman pen you use here belongs to the family. If you refine your own talismans, you will have your own talisman pen."

"In addition, spiritual talismans will also be collected there. After you learn a few more methods of making spiritual talismans and the success rate increases, you can take on the mission.

With this skill at hand, your future cultivation will be much easier. From now on, you can just make talismans in your own cave. There is no need to come here specially. If you don’t understand anything, you can always come and ask. I. "Xu Zhenggong said with emotion.

"My nephew, I would like to thank my eighth uncle for his careful teaching these days. Please accept my nephew's greetings!" Xu Zhiyu gave a solemn salute.

"Go ahead, the future of the family depends on you, but don't neglect your own cultivation. It is the most important thing, so remember it."

"Nephew understands"

Xu Zhiyu nodded, bowed his hands, said goodbye to his eighth uncle, and then returned to the cave.

Xu Zhiyu, who was lying on the bed, did not sleep peacefully. Even though he had been drawing talismans for the past three days, his fatigue was overshadowed by the joy of successful drawing.

Gradually, Xu Zhiyu, who was lying on the bed, felt an irrepressible feeling of exhaustion welling up in his heart. His eyelids gradually became heavy. He gradually closed his eyes and fell asleep soundly. When he woke up, it was the next morning.

Early the next morning, Xu Family Shanggong Hall.

More than ten people gathered in the hall on the first floor of the family's meritorious service hall. There were men and women, old people, young people in their twenties, and middle-aged women. They were all members of the Xu family exchanging good deeds or various training tools. Talisman materials, and some can be exchanged for various elixirs.

I saw a young man in blue robe taking out several elixirs, a monster pill, and various parts of the monster's body from the storage bag.

An old man in a black robe quickly picked up various elixir materials and inspected them, while three young men stood aside with a thick book to record.

The cover of the book is made of green animal skin, and the surface is surrounded by dense runes, which looks quite strange.

The old man is Xu Shenghua, the master of the family's merit hall. He is at the ninth level of Qi refining. He is also a hundred years old this year. He is much younger than his grandfather and is the youngest of his generation.

Xu Shenghua has been guarding the family warehouse for more than 20 years. He is well-informed and fair. He is responsible for collecting and exchanging various resources for cultivating immortals.

Xu Shenghua read aloud while counting and inspecting

"Two honeysuckle plants, each with eight points of good deeds, will be counted as sixteen points of good deeds. Three Qinglingguo trees, each with six points of good deeds, will be counted as eighteen points of good deeds. One golden mushroom will be counted as five points of good deeds."

"One first-level middle-grade demon beast, the Three-Eyed Wolf Demon Pill, which counts for eighteen points of good deeds, four three-eyed wolf claws, which counts for twelve good deeds, one demon eyeball, which counts for five points of good deeds, and one three-eyed wolf skin. , counting eight points of good deeds, totaling eighty-two points of good deeds.

The young man in blue robe heard that he seemed a little surprised by the price, and then said with excitement:
  "Uncle Liu, help me redeem three Qi-enhancing pills, a detoxifying pill, a Yuan-returning pill, and a first-class high-grade attack talisman.

"Three Qi Pills, each with eight points of good merit, totaling twenty-four points of good merit, one detoxification pill, each with twelve points of good merit, each pill of Huiyuan Pill with eight points of good merit, and a first-level high-grade attack talisman. Count fifteen points of good deeds.

"A total of sixty-nine points of good deeds, after deducting the remaining thirteen points.

Before he finished speaking, the young man in blue robe took out his family token and handed it to Xu Shenghua.

After Xu Shenghua fired a few spells, a red light flashed a few times and then disappeared.

Xu Shenghua then went into the warehouse, took out items for the clan members, and submitted them.

The young man took the family token and exchange items, clasped his fists and saluted, and left the Shanggong Hall.

The family has established a complete exchange mechanism. One good deed point can be exchanged for a low-grade spiritual stone. On the contrary, ten spiritual stones can only be exchanged for nine good deeds. Good deeds can be exchanged for some cherished things, which are generally not common in the market. For example, Barrier-Breaking Pills and Foundation-Building Pills can only be redeemed with good deeds. Exchange various materials and elixirs from the family treasury at prices lower than the market price in the world of immortality. And selling materials, elixirs, and talismans to the family is calculated as 10% or 20% higher than the market price. This can be considered a family benefit!
  For example, if the two honeysuckle plants taken out by the young man in blue robe are exchanged for seven low-grade spiritual stones in the market, each plant can be exchanged for seven low-grade spiritual stones. However, if exchanged in the family, each plant can only be exchanged for eight or nine low-grade spiritual stones.

After the blue-robed young man left, many tribesmen either sold or bought them one after another, and the entire Shanggong Hall was in a state of excitement.

A young man in green shirt appeared in the noisy crowd, it was Xu Zhiyu.

I finished the materials for making the talisman yesterday. Today I plan to come to the Shanggong Hall to replenish it and hand over the fireball talisman to the family in exchange for contribution points.

After greeting each other and elders of the same generation, they came to pay homage in front of Xu Shenghua and said
  "My grandson Zhiyu, pay your respects to Grandpa Six."

Xu Shenghua nodded and couldn't help laughing and scolding, "What do you want to change? Tell me quickly."

Xu Zhengyu didn't stop and directly explained the purpose of his visit, "Grandpa Six, I'm learning to make talismans and want to change some talisman paper and spiritual ink. If there are good talisman pens, I'm also going to change them."

After hearing this, Xu Shenghua said: "The talisman paper and Lingmo are easy to talk about, but the family's first-class high-grade talisman pen is left to your eighth uncle to use."

"The other first-order high-grade talisman pens were replaced by your tenth uncle. Now there is only a first-order medium-grade talisman pen."

As he spoke, Xu Shenghua took out a talisman pen and placed it on the table.

Looking closely, he saw a light cyan talisman pen, more than a foot long, called the sapphire pen. It was once a first-class high-grade talisman pen. For some reason, the grade of the talisman pen dropped to the first-order mid-grade. It must have been damaged during a fight.

Even though the grade fell, it is still much better than the ordinary first-grade mid-grade talisman pen. If it can be repaired, it is still very good.

"The sapphire pen requires two hundred and fifty merit points. Do you think you want to change it?"

Xu Zhiyu was shocked when he heard the price. He also expected the talisman pen to be expensive, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive. But it was related to the great cause of making talismans, so he seemed to be determined to buy it.

Xu Zhiyu said with a helpless smile:
  "Grandpa Six, then I will exchange for a hundred pieces of talisman paper, a bottle of spiritual ink, and a sapphire talisman pen."

There are eight spiritual stones for every hundred pieces of talisman paper, and two spiritual stones for each bottle of spiritual ink.

After he finished speaking, he took out his family token, which had one hundred and fifty merit points on it. After counting, all the merit points on the token were cleared, and he also gave Grandfather Six a hundred spiritual stones.

"The one hundred and fifty good deeds I gained during the three years I was stationed at Zimu Mountain were all spent at once. Even the spiritual stones I got from Shura Shuangsha's storage bag at that time also cost one hundred and fifty. If it were done again, If there is no income, we are really going to suffer from the northwest wind. But there is no way, sharpening the knife will not delay the chopping of firewood, it is not enough if we don't buy it." Xu Zhiyu's heart was bleeding, and he could only comfort himself like this.

"Boy, what are you doing standing there? Is there anything else?"

"Grandpa Six, will the Shanggong Hall accept the talisman?"

"Why are you asking this? Haven't you just learned how to make talismans a few days ago? Don't be too ambitious. Wait until you actually draw the talisman."

"It seems that the news about me becoming a Talisman Maker has not spread yet," Xu Zhiyu thought. Said at the same time.

"My grandson is not very talented. He has just drawn a batch of spiritual talismans. Please take a look at it, Grandpa Six."

Xu Zhiyu took out the dozen or so talismans he drew and handed them to Xu Shenghua.

Xu Shenghua was stunned, took it, held it in his hand, and looked at it carefully.

"I didn't expect you to become a first-level low-level Talisman Maker so quickly. Your progress is rapid and your future prospects are formidable!"

"Grandpa Sixth received the award. My grandson is also new to this industry. What the future holds is unknown."

"Well, neither arrogant nor impetuous, good boy, let's keep up the good work!"

"Three first-level low-grade spiritual talismans and one good deed. Thirty-five first-order low-grade spiritual talismans will give you twelve good deeds!"

"Thank you Grandpa Six"

Xu Zhiyu calculated that one hundred pieces of talisman paper would consume a bottle of spiritual ink, which would total ten good deeds. If the success rate was 30%, that would mean thirty talismans, three first-level low-grade spiritual talismans and one good deed, and a total of ten good deeds would be obtained. If the success rate is less than 30%, then you are always losing money. No wonder the success rate of 30% is the criterion for judging whether a person is a charm maker.

Seeing the twelve points of good deeds performed by the token, Xu Zhiyu felt full of accomplishment. After saying goodbye to Xu Shenghua, he left the Shanggong Hall and headed towards the cave. He only had one thought in his mind now - making talismans.

　It is not easy to write a new book. I hope you will support me a lot. Thank you!
